Ghanaian tactician Prince Yaw Owusu has stepped down from his role as interim head coach of Asante Kotoko, bringing an abrupt end to his brief stint with the Porcupine Warriors.
Owusu was appointed on a temporary basis following the sudden resignation of Karim Zito, who left his post after Kotoko’s FA Cup defeat to Aduana FC at the Baba Yara Stadium.
His tenure, however, was marked by inconsistent performances, prompting his decision to step aside.
In an official statement, the Kumasi-based club confirmed that Owusu had submitted his resignation, noting that the coach believed stepping down was in the best interest of the team.
“Interim Head Coach Prince Yaw Owusu has stepped down from his role with immediate effect. The coach stated in his resignation letter that his decision was taken in the greatest interest of the club,” part of the statement said.
“Management expresses its sincere appreciation to Coach for his service, dedication, and commitment during his time with the club, and wishes him the very best in his future endeavours.”
Meanwhile, Youth Team Coach Hamza Obeng has been tasked with leading Kotoko for the remainder of the season as the club looks to stabilise its campaign.
